Chapter 301: 301 Buy House Success_1

The young lady gestured for Ji Chen to follow her, her enthusiasm palpable and electric.

"Yes, yes, yes, of course, please come with me this way, let’s take a look," she said eagerly.

As she spoke, she prepared to lead Ji Chen toward the exhibition hall, where various real estate models were displayed.

Ji Pianran offered a smile, "Can we see the actual apartments?"

Such models he really couldn’t get, in an era when many developers purposefully beautify their properties. For instance, the so-called sky garden might look like a garden in the model, but when you see the real thing, it turned out to be smaller than a balcony, basically just a storage space!

"An actual apartment, uh..." Upon hearing the request for an actual apartment, the young lady hesitated.

It was mostly laziness—what if he was just asking and not buying? Then she’d have to make the trip for nothing, too bothersome for all sorts of reasons.

Seeing her hesitation, Ji Chen spoke up without hesitation, "Then let’s forget it."

As he said this, he acted as if he were about to leave.

The truth was, he hadn’t really planned to leave, but the idea of buying a home without seeing an actual apartment was inconceivable to him. What kind of absurdity was that—who would spend hundreds of thousands on a model?

Besides, he would have to view the apartments sooner or later!

Seeing him about to leave, the young lady panicked, quickly saying, "Alright, alright, alright, please wait for me a moment, I will go get the keys."

Rushing off toward the bar, she negotiated with the girl inside for a while, got a set of keys, then hurried back to Ji Chen.

"Sir, let’s go, I will take you to see a model room, which happens to be nicely furnished," she informed him.

A model room was specifically made for viewing, with all furniture and cupboards, basically everything, already installed.

Having explained, the young lady led the way.

Ji Chen followed behind her, taking a careful look around the community as they entered. The more he saw, the more he liked the neighborhood. When the two reached the kindergarten, the young lady made a point to introduce it.

"Sir, I’m not exaggerating when I say this kindergarten is the best in Haicheng. If you bury yourself here, your child’s kindergarten issue is as good as resolved," she gushed.

After finishing, she pointed toward the back of the community, "Over there, there’s an elementary school. After graduation, children can go straight to the elementary school, which is also very convenient."

Ji Chen hadn’t known there was an elementary school behind the community, and he nodded.

"Quite user-friendly," he remarked.

"And that’s not all. Past the crossroads ahead, there’s a hospital, and to the right, a large supermarket—the location is exceedingly good."

Ji Chen came to understand; high prices often had their reasons.

A good location, plus a school district property, would obviously command a high price.

As they talked, they reached Building 10, which contained apartments of around 180 square meters.

The young lady opened the door to the unit, let Ji Chen enter first, then followed him in, and proceeded to open a door on the right side of the first floor.

"Sir, this is the model room. Feel free to take a look," she invited.

This model room, designed especially for customers and by a professional designer, was fully fitted—from the large cabinets to the small details like the toilet. The living room featured a genuine leather sofa, opposite a 60-inch LCD color television.

Most importantly, there was a balcony next to it, open to the sky, with a sun umbrella set up. Underneath the umbrella was a glass coffee table and two wicker chairs.

The young lady described, "This space is specially designed for enjoying tea, and you can even barbecue here."

She then pointed out the barbecue grill on the balcony.

Ji Chen nodded, "Not bad."

Truth be told, the model room looked really good.

It had three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and even included a study.

Each room was exceptionally well organized.

What satisfied Ji Chen the most was the children’s room, with its pink walls and a pink princess bed adorned with thick white mattresses and sheets appearing supremely soft.

A pink plush rabbit toy was placed on the bed.

It clearly seemed like a little girl’s haven.

The two of them took another careful look around the room before Gu Chen finally said, "How much is this house? I’ll buy it."

Upon hearing this, the young lady was shocked!

"Sir, this is our show unit. If you buy it, what will we show our customers? This certainly won’t do."

You can’t just directly buy the show unit when purchasing a house; isn’t that a joke?

After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen said, "Then how about this, why don’t you call your leader and ask how much this show unit can be sold for!"

To tell the truth, buying this house was the best option for Gu Chen.

Because interior decoration is a very, very troublesome matter. You have to pick and buy furniture one by one, not to mention the need to hire someone to lay tiles and wire the place.

It would be impossible to finish the whole process in just a few months.

This room, which was specifically designed by a designer and had every detail well-thought-out, was naturally something Gu Chen wanted to buy directly!

It would save him a lot of trouble indeed.

It was the first time the young lady had encountered such a situation. She looked at Gu Chen uncertainly, "Sir, I will call now and ask, but are you sure you want this particular unit?"

If she made the inquiry and then he changed his mind, she would end up getting scolded by her manager!

Gu Chen nodded earnestly.

"As long as it’s for sale, I’ll pay the full amount right now."

Upon hearing this, the young lady took out her phone and called the manager.

"Hello, Manager Wang, we have a customer here interested in buying our show unit that’s one hundred and eighty thousand."

The young lady was seriously reporting to her manager.

Upon hearing this, the manager on the other end of the phone exploded, "The show unit?!"

You should know that the decoration alone had cost them over forty thousand. If they sold it, they would be at a loss.

"Yes, the show unit," the young lady repeated.

"You tell him four hundred and thirty thousand, we’ll sell for four hundred and thirty thousand!"

After all, they were businessmen and were quite flexible when it came to doing business.

The house was supposed to be three hundred and sixty thousand, with three thousand for renovation costs, twenty thousand for furniture, and ten thousand for damages.

If he was willing to accept, then sell it to him; if not, then forget it!

Actually, the show unit wasn’t even meant to be sold to begin with.

The young lady hung up the phone and conveyed the manager’s words to Gu Chen. She thought he might drop the purchase over the ten thousand in damages.

Unexpectedly, Gu Chen just smiled at her, "Good, no problem!"

Consider it paying for time. The deal was absolutely worth it. A month of renovation time could see Gu Chen earning thirty to fifty thousand, or even more.

Spending that time on renovations would be truly foolish.

Seeing that Gu Chen was still going to buy,

The young lady swallowed hard in surprise.

Today she truly understood the whims of the wealthy; ten thousand just for damages, and he didn’t bat an eye.

"Sir, please come with me to the front to do some paperwork," she said.

After saying that, she led Gu Chen to the sales department’s lobby.

Then she started with the house buying contract, photocopying ID cards, and all the other procedures.

Gu Chen was very cooperative, and in just over half an hour, the house was his.

Looking at the watch, it had only been two hours.

Gu Chen then went to the cake shop to order a cake, took it to his newly bought house, and only then did he contentedly call Ji Pianran.
